Hi Tim,

You can enter the information through the administration panel like usual, but you'll have to apply a couple extra styles in style.css. Open style.css and add the following lines:

#masthead h1 a, #masthead h1 span { text-indent: -9999px; }

That should offset the text so that it doesn't display overtop your image, but search engines can still get the information.

Let me know how it goes!

Cheers,

Andrea

Hi Peter,

When you say blog text, do you mean the content of the post body? If that's what you mean I can show you how to include that in the right sidebar display area... I just want to make sure I understand what you are asking!

Thanks,

Andrea

JJ - I'd love to make Wakalixes a WP theme - the only problem is time, which I have none of at the moment! But it's on my to-do list!

Andrea Mignolo replied on September 12, 2009 17:17 to the question "Help with Navigation and Oulipo's appearance on a PC" in Mignolo:

Hi Rich,

The problem you are encountering with the navigation is because of the style rules attached to it. In particular, the main navigation is given a "fixed" position, which is what keeps it in view even as you scroll content. The draw back with this property is that content that lands outside of the viewport (as is the case when viewing the site on your laptop with a smaller screen). There are a couple things you can try to get *all* of the navigation showing.

In your style.css, look for the following snippet:

#main_nav {
display:inline;
float:left;
margin:9em 0 0;
position:fixed;
width:10em;
}

If you want to keep the fixed positioning, I'd work on adjusting the top margin of the navigation. Currently it is set to 9em. Try making that 7em or maybe 5 (or just tweak around until you are happy). This will pull the main navigation menu closer to the top of the viewport and will allow smaller screens to see the entire navigation.

The other thing you can do is to remove the fixed positioning. Where it says position: fixed;, change that to read position: relative;. This will cause the menu to scroll with the rest of the content, and behave as visitors might expect, so that if the navigation is cut off, they can simply scroll to see the rest of it.

Let me know if either of these approaches solves the issue!

Thanks Rich!

Hi Mark,

I'm not entirely clear on what you mean by multiple galleries... are you referring to the new functionality released in 2.8? If so, no, that hasn't been implemented in Zack 990 yet, but I do have plans to when things aren't so wildly busy!

Can you explain in more detail what you want to do with galleries? Thanks!

Andrea
